I'd like to add my own pride at how well I felt the team played today! The majority of the team have only been playing since September, and I feel that they showed a high level of skill in all areas of the game, especially tagging and passing. We saw some excellent tries scored today, and overall some excellent teamwork!

I'd also like to add my thanks to the other coaches, especially Charlie who fulfilled our refereeing obligations today, John for his excellent coaching of team B, Antoine for keeping score, and all the parents for cheering on our teams!

Big thank you to all the players for all their hard work, both in training, and at today's festival! Amongst other things, I could definitely see them using some of the running passing techniques we've been working on recently.
